Zusammenfassung:	Surgical tools and methods for inserting fasteners into a patient. The tools may be loaded to hold multiple fasteners at a single time. The tools may include an elongated shape for insertion into the patient and placement at a predetermined position. A dispensing mechanism within the tools individually releases the fasteners. The tools may further be equipped to completely or partially mount the fasteners within the patient. Methods of using the tools include preloading chambers with multiple fasteners prior to the surgical procedure. The fasteners may then be individually released from the tools during the surgical procedure and carefully positioned within the patient.
